So sad to hear of Gene's passing. We shared a career in the insurance industry and I have fond memories from early childhood of his cheerfulness and good spirit. Though fist cousins, the size of the family placed us in different generations; but his kindness to me over the years is greatfully remembered. My condolences to Jennie and her family. - Edward Geer,

Dear Jenn and Family,
My heart goes out to all of you. Gene was a very special man with a smile that could light up a room. He was a joy to be around and I could see he truly loved and appreciated his family, friends and above all life. I am glad I got to know him through my mom Sophie Lohneiss. He will always be close to your hearts.
